One can take a calculus course online at sites such as ProjectPolymath and StraigherLine, but one can also take a course in Calculus by going to a University (College) such as Macalester.
Calculus is commonly taken as a first year course in college, but can be taken as an advanced course late in high school through programs like AP Calculus.
Calculus for sure.
Generally pre-calculus is taken after trigonometry, unless the trigonometry course was supplemented by a pre-calculus course, in which case the next course would be calculus.
You must have a strong basis in Algebra, Algebra II, Geometry and Trigonometry. Usually high schools offer a pre-Calculus course which is somewhat of a conglomeration of the aforementioned courses. Then you would move into differential calculus, integral calculus, vector (multi-variable) calculus, and finally differential equations, which is considered to be at the top of the hierarchy of the calculus courses. So take Algebra, Algebra II, Geometry and Trigonometry to get your strong foundation before begining the calculus sequence.
In the 'real world', the purpose of a course of study in pre-calculus is to prepare the student for a course of study in Calculus.

Calculus AB is the branch of the calculus curriculum offered by the College Board exam administration. It differs from its counterpart, Calculus BC, in that AB only covers material into a standard "college" introductory calculus course.Usually, Calculus AB corresponds to a typical university's Calculus I course (or similarly named). In contrast, BC is a more accelerated course which covers material that corresponds to both Calculus I and II. This may vary depending on the university, as some combine both Calculus I and II into one course, in which case AB would only cover one semester of material.Calculus AB includes content based on limits, continuity, differentiation, integration, the IVT, the MVT, the EVT, and the FTC.
Calculus (or, some advanced pre-calculus classes).
AP Calculus AB is a post-secondary course that is also offered in many high schools. Students that score high on the AP exam may not have to take certain college math courses.
Hello, me! lol And the people who post answers in this section. Also Calculus Teachers and Profs. Engineers and Science Students will be required to take it. Lawyers are recommended to take it (Math Logic Course) And many many more...
The term calculus comes directly from Latin. In Latin a calculus (noun) is a small stone used for counting, much like the beads on an abacus. One of the fundamental uses for modern calculus is integration, which is of course addition of infinitely small sections.
